Figure S III.12. The bottom graphs are average intraspecific gap divergences. In Gorgor1, the value is 0.138151 (the average gap divergence among any two non-related gorillas).

The average interspecific gap divergence between hg002 and Pantro3 is 0.133012 or 0.124732 (depending which is ref)

The funniest part is that they keep calling it a "bombshell" and going all hysterical as if this study showed something radically new. These gap alignment numbers are in the range of previous estimates. The T2T assembly just added precision to measurements we've had for DECADES! lmao

My other reps: @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social @governor.ny.gov If you folks can't support the nominee that the voters chose, you do not represent us.

Are you aware of when we caught Behe doing way worse back in 2019? He sliced and diced a chart, omitting both columns and rows that had data contrary to his claim. And when caught, he *still* couldn’t admit any fault. Hilarious.

And his response to being caught was to act like it didn't matter, like those data aren't relevant to his point. If that's the case, then he REALLY doesn't understand ANY of this, lol.

WOW! Thanks so much for these kind and very encouraging words. Give my best to the folks in Salisbury and maybe I can pop in virtually and offer my greetings!
